DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer and definite, the content of the present disclosure will be further explained in detail in combination with the drawings and specific implementation modes. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present disclosure and not to limit it. In addition, it should be noted that for the convenience of description, only some parts related to the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, rather than the entire content.

[0026] This embodiment provides a cloak bracket for rear bucket of pickup truck, as shown in FIG. 1, which includes fixed crossbars 1 that are symmetrically provided on a left inner side and a right inner side of the rear bucket. Two fixed crossbars 1 are provided with a first hinge member 101 and a second hinge member 102 on a side of the fixed crossbars along a length direction thereof. Two second hinge members 102 are hinged with two tail ends of a first arched support bracket 3, middle sections on two sides of the first arched support bracket 3 are respectively hinged with a head end of a support arm 2, a tail end of the support arm 2 is detachably hinged with the first hinge member 101.

[0027] In this embodiment, by providing the first arched support bracket 3 and support arm 2 that are mutually hinged on the fixed crossbar 1, when a user needs to disassemble the first arched support bracket 3, a detachable characteristic of the support arm 2 can be used to quickly detach the support arm 2 from the first hinge member 101. After losing the fixation of the first hinge member 101, the first arched support bracket 3 can freely rotate the second hinge member 102 as a rotation axis, and finally, the first arched support bracket 3 collapse towards the ground due to its own weight, thereby achieving rapid disassembly of the first arched support bracket 3.

[0028] Unless otherwise specified, all components in this embodiment are symmetrically arranged to ensure uniform structural strength.

[0029] Furthermore, for the truck rain shelter described in the background technology, only one horizontal support rod and a cloth storage cylinder actually provide actual support. The distance between the two support points is very large. If the rainfall is large, rainwater is easy to accumulate in the middle of the rain shelter. As time passes, the weight of the accumulated rainwater increases, eventually collapsing the rain shelter, causing items in the rear bucket to wade into the water. Therefore, in another implementation mode of this embodiment, a connection rod structure formed by hinging three arched support brackets is provided, as described below.

[0030] Considering a limited length of the rear bucket, if three arched support brackets collapse in the same direction, there may cause interference, and causes any arched support bracket to not fully collapse due to some interference. Therefore, in this technical solution, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a third hinge member 103 is also provided on a side of the fixed crossbar 1, and the first hinge member 101, second hinge member 102, and third hinge member 103 are arranged sequentially from a tail end to a head end of the rear bucket. Two third hinge member 103 are hinged with two tail ends of a third arched support bracket 5, two tail ends of the first arched support bracket 3 are extended and hinged with two tail ends of the second arched support bracket 4, middle sections on two sides of the second arched support bracket 4 are hinged with middle sections on two sides of the third arched support bracket 5. Finally, when the three arched support brackets are installed as shown in FIG. 1, the first arched support bracket 3 tilts towards a rear end of the vehicle, the second arched support bracket 4 tilts towards a front end of the vehicle, and the third arched support bracket 5 tilts towards the rear end of the vehicle. An entire connection rod structure is fixed by the support arm 2 and the first hinge member 101, and in a stable state. Therefore, the three arched support brackets can be used to support the cloak.

[0031] In the above technical solution, the first hinge member 101, the second hinge member 102, and the third hinge member 103 are arranged sequentially from the tail end to the head end of the rear bucket, that is, the first arched support bracket 3, the second arched support bracket 4, and the third arched support bracket 5 corresponding to the three hinge members are also arranged sequentially from the tail end to the head end of the rear bucket, and most importantly, the tail end of the first arched support bracket 3 needs to be extended to be hinged with the tail end of the second arched support bracket 4, as shown in FIG. 4, when the first arched support bracket 3 loses the fixation of the support arm 2 and the first hinge member 101, the entire connection rod structure is in an extremely unstable state. Additionally, due to the hinge connection between the middle sections on two sides of the second arched support bracket 4 and the middle sections on two sides of the third arched support bracket 5, there is a strong tendency for the second arched support bracket 4 and the third arched support bracket 5 to self-collapse. At this time, the first arched support bracket 3 is pulled by other two arched support brackets; and thus, the first arched support bracket 3 has a tendency to collapse towards the front end of the vehicle. Therefore, the user only needs to apply a small push force on the first arced support bracket 3 towards the front end of the vehicle to drive the second arched support bracket 4 to naturally collapse towards the front end of the vehicle, and the third arched support bracket 5 to naturally collapse towards the rear end of the vehicle. After completing the disassembly task of the three arched supports, the final disassembly effect is shown in FIG. 5.

[0032] The above arched support brackets can be a non-closed-loop rigid component of any shape, which can achieve the function of supporting the cloak. Optionally, the first arched support bracket 3, the second arched support bracket 4, and/or the third arched support bracket 5 include a support crossbar and a support diagonal bar provided at two ends of the support crossbar. After the arched support bracket is removed, it can be further divided into support crossbars and support diagonal bars, and further compressing an occupied area of the arched support brackets.

[0033] Furthermore, considering that a top of the cloak should be relatively flush, the three support crossbars should be in the same horizontal plane when installed. In an example, after the tail end of the support arm 2 is detachably hinged with the first hinge member 101, vertical heights of the support crossbars corresponding to the first arched support bracket 3, the second arched support bracket 4, and the third arched support bracket 5 are equal. Therefore, a length of the support diagonal bar should be adjusted adaptively. Specifically, in an installation state, the principle of consistent vertical heights of the support crossbars and an actual inclination angle of each support diagonal bar should be considered to set the actual length of each support diagonal rod, as an inclination angle of each support diagonal rod can be manually set, there are also various variations in the length of each support diagonal rod, which will not be listed here.

[0034] In this embodiment, the tail end of the support arm 2 should be detachably hinged with the first hinge member 101; and thus, providing users with a quick means of disassembly. In an example, as shown in FIG. 3, an axis of the first hinge member 101 is provided with a bolt 6, a tail end of the support arm 2 is provided with a hook 7 for fastening the bolt 6. An opening of the hook 7 faces downwards, a hand twisted part S is screwed into the bolt 6 to tighten the hook 7. In this technical solution, the bolt 6 is served as an axial extension part of the first hinge member 101, and the hook 7 provided at the tail end of the support arm 2 can quickly fasten the bolt 6; and thus, forming a preliminary radial limit. Due to the downward opening of the hook 7 and the gravity of the first arched support bracket 3 applied to the support arm 2, the hook 7 has a downward compression trend and is not easy to fall off. Finally, the hand twisted part 8 is used to screw the bolt 6 and tighten the hook 7, and thereby providing axial limit for the hook 7.

[0035] The cloak bracket for rear bucket of pickup truck further includes a cloak (not shown in the drawings), which is provided with a fixed part on two sides of the cloak (not shown in the drawings). For example, the fixed part can be a Velcro tape that is glued or sewn on two sides of the cloak. Continuing to refer to FIG. 3, a side of fixed crossbar 1 is provided with a fixed hole 9 for accommodating the fixed part. The Velcro tape passes through the fixed hole 9 and then fits together to fix the cloak on two sides of the fixed crossbar 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, there is no limit to the fixing method between the fixed crossbar 1 and the rear bucket, which can be fixed either by permanent welding or by detachable means. In an example, continuing to refer to FIG. 3, an inner lower end of the fixed crossbar 1 is provided with a first fastener 104 for matching with a contour of a side wall of the rear bucket, and an inner upper end of the fixed crossbar 1 is provided with a second fastener 105 for matching with the first fastener 104. Where, a contact surface between the second fastener 105 and the first fastener 104 is provided with a first fastening piece 106. Generally speaking, there is a section steel on an inner edge of the rear bucket, which is used to strengthen the strength of the side wall of the rear bucket. Therefore, the first fastener 104 and second fastener 105 mentioned above should be set to adapt to the shape of the section steel to clamp it. Finally, the first fastening piece 106 is used to connect the first fastener 104 and the second fastener 105 to clamp the section steel, thereby forming a connection structure between the fixed crossbar 1 and the rear bucket. The first fastening piece 106 mentioned above can use a bolt, rivet, and other fasteners, in an implementation mode, a bolt is used for dismantling the fixed crossbar 1.

[0037] Due to the need to temporarily open the tail end of the cloak, a detachable tail crossbar 107 is further provided at an end of the fixed crossbar 1 close to the tail end of the rear bucket. Two ends of the tail crossbar 107 can be detachably installed at the tail end of the fixed crossbar 1. For example, the tail end of the fixed crossbar 1 can be provided with a groove facing the rear end of the vehicle (as shown in the drawing, not marked) to accommodate the end of the tail crossbar 107. At the same time, due to an elastic tension of the cloak, after the end of the tail crossbar 107 enters the groove, the tail crossbar 107 is stably fixed to the tail end of the crossbar 1. During installation, the tail crossbar 107 also needs to be fixed to the tail end of the cloak. Optionally, the tail end of the cloak can be sewn into a hollow tube shape to accommodate the tail crossbar 107. When the user needs to open the tail end of the cloak, they can pull the tail crossbar 107 outward, and the end of the tail crossbar 107 will come out of the groove.

[0038] In this embodiment, it is necessary to use the elasticity of the cloak to press the end of the tail crossbar 107 tightly in the groove, and the premise that the cloak can provide elasticity is that it must be straightened, which means that the tail crossbar 107 has a need for expansion and contraction. Optionally, as shown in FIG. 2, two ends of the tail crossbar 107 are fixedly connected to a connection rod 108. A middle of the connection rod 108 is provided with a slot hole 109 along its own length direction, and a second fastening piece 110 is provided on an inner side of the fixed crossbar 1 that matches a width of the slot hole 109. A relative sliding of the second fastening piece 110 and the slot hole 109 controls the expansion and contraction of the tail crossbar 107. It should be noted that due to the slot hole 109 being in a long strip shape, if the second fastening piece 110 adopts a circular fastener such as a bolt, at least two bolts should be used to prevent slot hole 109 from rotating along one bolt. In this technical solution, the expansion and contraction amount of the tail crossbar 107 needs to be adjusted according to the straightness of the cloak during the first installation.

[0039] The above embodiments are only intended to illustrate the technical concept and characteristics of the present disclosure, and their purpose is to enable ordinary technical personnel in the art to understand the content of the present disclosure and implement it accordingly, without limiting the protection scope of the present disclosure. Any equivalent changes or modifications made based on the essence of the present disclosure should be covered within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
